Background and approach
The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Megan uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She draws on CBT to address unhelpful thinking and DBT for emotion regulation skills.
She also brings attachment-based ideas when relationship patterns and past wounds come up. People come to her for help with communication problems, grief, parenting stress, career decisions, and mood swings. She also supports those facing codependency, impulsivity, obsessive behaviors, and multicultural concerns.
Sessions often include skill practice and problem-solving between meetings. Megan describes therapy as a collaborative effort. She helps clients name what matters to them and then crafts plans that match those goals.
The work moves at a pace the client finds manageable and focuses on usable tools for daily life.
Therapeutic approaches to use online and in session
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking action toward them even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It is often helpful for people wrestling with anxiety, low motivation, or life changes because it emphasizes meaningful goals rather than symptom elimination.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets patterns of thinking that keep problems in place and teaches practical exercises to change those thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and many mood-related concerns and often includes homework to practice new skills.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect present-day connections and communication. This approach can help when intimacy, trust, or codependency issues are central concerns by helping people notice and change repetitive interaction styles.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will ask about needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that fit the person's situation. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most and what feels manageable.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can support ongoing reflection and quick coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try methods that match how someone prefers to communicate.
